Plants and green spaces are pivotal in all environments, especially in urban areas. They enhance air quality, provide climate resilience, retain moisture through droughts, sequester carbon and prevent flooding erosion and supporting biodiversity. Through our panel discussion we will highlight why plants & natural solutions are pivotal in urban settings, how integrating green spaces can mitigate the negative impacts of climate change & improve the overall quality of life, as well as the importance of nature-based solutions in combating the effects of climate change. We will introduce our Clean Air Calculator; a tool designed to illustrate the impact of green spaces. Join us for a moderated discussion to explore solutions and future opportunities for enhancing urban green spaces. Attendees will be able to engage with the panelists, ask questions, and discuss potential strategies for urban greening.
